BATTING
LONDON, June 30. Continuing to play bright and stylish cricket after the ad- journment for lunch, Bradman and Kippax-brought the score to 585 runs when the former was brilliantly caught" by Chapman at extra-cover. It was indeed a wonderful catch-one-handed and tal as the English captain is, he had to jump for it. Bradman's score was 254 runs and during all the time he was at the wickets he did not make any mistaken, driving, cutting and hitting to leg superbly," while his foot work was casterly. Exactly 100 of his rans came from boundaries, and on returning to the pavilion Bradman was loudly cheered, Three runs later Kippax was an- fortunate in playing on one from White and was rent back to the pavilion with 83 runs to his credit. Although he only hit four boundaries, Alan" played a very good innings. The score board now read 588-4-83. Orders now were evidently to get the" runs quickly, and after be had collected 44 McCabe was caught by Woolley off Hainmond. Then, in attempting to bring off a big hit, Richardson skied one of Tate and was well taken by Hobbs, the ball going up a great height before coming down again. The six hundred mark had been passed, and incidentally the highest total in Anglo-Australian Test matches put up by England (838) in When Richardson was out Sydney in 1829 was also surpassed. the Australian' total stood at 672 runs for six wickets down and with Oldfield (43) and Fairfax (90) still batting, the insings -

England Bata Again: Early Disaster.
With 30 runs in arrears on the first "innings, England - start- ed on their difficult task by sending out Hobbs and Woolley to open their innings, and things were looking rather bright until Hobbs missed one of Grimmett's leg-breaks and was bowled för 10 runs. The total was 45 runs and Wally Hammond joined Woolley, who was batting beautifully. More trouble for England, however, was to follow, for in sending one of Grimmett's deliveries to the ropes, the Kent left-hander lost his balance and hit his own wicket. It was bad luck for Woolley, who had been playing "pretty ericket up to now. He made 28 runs and the total was 58
For 2.
Duleepsinghi, England's top-scorer in the first innings, was next man in, and together with Hammond played very carefully and brought the score to 98 runs when stumps were drawn.

LONDON, July 1. The weather was threatening and the wicket showed signs of wear when Hammond and Duleepsinghi, the overnight hot outs, continued England's innings to-day.

Enter "Pas" Hendren, but after he had made only nine runs he was caught by Richardson at silly-point, Grimmett claiming the wicket. The English captain then joined "Duleep," who shortly. after wae out to a catch behind the sticks off Hornibrook when he was two short of his half century.
He played a fighting innings and was in for an hour and n half. Allen then filled the vacancy, and althongh he failed in bowling, he settled down to some excellent batting against heavy odds and supported his captain in great style. Chapman who stepped in the breach at what might be described as the critical juncture, batted superbly, and lifting Grimmett for a six by a straight drive sent up the 60 for his partnership with the Middle- sex bowler. They continued to bat in fine fashion, and after 05 minutes play had put on 115 runs. Play was then stopped for lunch, Chapman being 52 nct out, while Allen was also undefeated for 54, the total now being 262 runs for five wickets down!,
